Scottsdale Physical Therapy

Helping Patients Throughout the Valley for more than 13 Yearas

FROGS is a part of the Arizona community and knows when a health problem starts to infringe on your quality of life in terms of ongoing pain or physical limitations, a physical therapist can be called on to lessen the levels of pain and improve your ability to complete everyday tasks and abilities. Any number of different health problems can lead to the need for a physical therapist – anything from a traumatic injury to a disease that has compromised your physical function in some way. If your doctor refers you to a physical therapist to have specific treatment for your health problems, it is important that you follow through with the treatment as prescribed. If you neglect the physical therapy treatment you will likely suffer the consequences on a daily basis for many years to come.

FROGS Physical Therapy

From golf and tennis rehab to everyday life activities FROGS knows there are endless reasons why you need physical therapy and we will get you back to everyday life activities.

We treat your dysfunction, not just your symptoms

Any injury that limits your day to day function can cause a major hardship in your life. Things you once took for granted, like using the restroom or even getting out of bed, may be much more difficult that you ever imagined. If your injuries have left you unable to work, you can suffer financial consequences in addition to the physical and emotional challenges. With the help of a licensed physical therapist in Scottsdale, the limitations that have been placed on your life can be improved or removed altogether.

There is almost always some form of exercise involved in a physical therapy program. These exercises might be very simple, or they could be quite challenging depending on what specifically you are rehabilitating from. Following the orders of your Scottsdale physical therapist and keeping up with these exercises when you are away from the doctor’s office will have a lot to do with how successful your treatment program is.

Getting back to work as quickly as possible after an injury is something that is obviously very important and can be assisted with proper physical therapy. Even if you were not injured on the job, your physical limitations might have required you to alter your position at work, or have kept you home from work altogether. Physical therapy treatments that address your most pressing issues will hopefully be able to speed up the timeline and allow you to get back to earning a living sooner rather than later.

Athletes are another group of people who can greatly benefit from physical therapy treatments. Whether it is a minor injury like a strain or sprain, or a more serious tear or break that requires complete rehabilitation, sports medicine has helped countless athletes get back on the field faster and extend their careers many years into the future. If you are an athlete and feel that your body is constantly fighting you from trying to do what you expect from it, consider physical therapy as a way to get back to your optimum performance level.

Often, physical therapy plays a large role in the health and well-being of elderly people. If an elderly person has suffered a fall, for example, the doctor may recommend physical therapy as a way to both recover from any injuries that were suffered and to help avoid any future falls from occurring. Since physical therapy can often be a form of exercise in its own right, elderly patients benefit from the activity they get when visiting the PT office and will many times find themselves in better condition after physical therapy than they were before the fall even occurred. Staying active into the later years is important for elderly people to remain in good health, and physical therapy works help extend the number of years that a high activity level is possible.

Physical therapy has many uses and can be of benefit for people of all ages and from all walks of life. From the professional athlete looking to get back on the field as quick as possible, to the elderly person simply wanting to maintain their independence, having a physical therapist can help anyone with a physical limitation or injury. The end goal of any physical therapy treatment is to reduce or remove pain, while improving or completely restoring the movement and functional ability of the patient.

I came in unable to walk due to a knee injury. Andy put me on crutches and work me thru therapy, at my pace. Never pushing me beyond what I could handle and often kept me from doing too much. Explaining everything I had questions on and working with my work schedule. When my insurance didn't approve more therapy he worked with me and kept my strength training on-going. Both he and his staff truly care about the well-being of their patients. I highly recommend FROGS Physical Therapy.

Andy, Thanks for doing it again! Several years ago you rehabbed my left shoulder, then a couple of years later you rehabbed my right shoulder (both now doing very well!) and lately you got me walking again. I had fallen in the rock garden and a few weeks later had some stiffness when I got up one morning. The next morning I could barely walk, but did make it to your clinic. Long story short, within three days you had me walking and I even made it through Sky Harbor to catch a plane. Thanks!

Make no mistake about it, Andy Clary is committed to excellence. As a forty year runner, I have required physical therapy from time-to-time over the years. Several months ago, I sought treatment for sudden and severe lower back disc pain. Discouraged, I was referred to Andy at Frogs by an orthopedic surgeon, although I was not prepared for what I experienced. Andy’s expertise, knowledge, experience and work ethic is unmatched in the industry. I have been the beneficiary of these qualities and Andy s incredible skill, now that he has me back in the game. Kudos to Andy and the folks at FROGS Physical Therapy.

Andy, thank you for using your expertise to help me. I am excited to be on the road to becoming stronger and in better shape.

I found myself on top of Humboldt Pk at 14,064 ft. I had a picture taken July 1, 2011 (I attached it to my email). Thanks for all of your help. When I came to you, DR C made the statement our first goal is to save the leg and together we did that and much more. Thanks again and I wanted to share positive results.

I've known Andy Clary for almost ten years (before he started FROGS PT), and have full trust in him and in the way he plans and proceeds with each treatment. He is a knowledgeable and experienced therapist and treats each patient with utmost care. He is professional in his field and is a kind gentleman, who takes care of each and every patient with utmost attention and care. I feel myself in good care when Andy works on my injuries, and trust in his professional approach and treatment. I consider Andy one of the best in this field and strongly recommend him to all my family and friends. May God bless him and make him more successful in his services to the patients, who, I believe, have the same feeling and view as I have.

About 2 1/2 years ago I sustained an injury to my low back while on the job. At first I thought it was no big deal, I tried to shake it off and just keep going. But after 3 weeks my pain was getting worse. Over the next two years I saw 2 different physical therapists, tried chiropractic medicine, saw two physicians specializing in physical medicine and rehab and even had dry needle trigger point injections. Everyone I saw was hopeful they could help me, but eventually the outcome was always the same – the pain was still there. At that time I was very discouraged. Then a friend of mine suggested I see Andy at FROGS. I’ll admit I was a little skeptical about seeing another physical therapist – but I’m so glad I went. After the first visit as I stood up to walk out the door I noticed something very different – my back didn’t hurt! After living with constant pain at some degree for 2 years, it was an almost startling sensation. After my visits with Andy were complete I felt stronger and was not having nagging pain 24/7. I really felt like myself again! I’m so glad I came to FROGS and would highly recommend Andy to anyone who suffers from chronic pain.

FROGS Physical Therapy – Thank You!

You MUST meet Andy and his staff if you wish to eliminate your pain and /or recover from chronic issues. For over 10 years, I have traveled extensively and was resigned to believing that my back, neck and shoulder pain would simply be unresolved. Then 18 months ago, I had to give up running due to knee pain. Frustration and depression were inevitable.

I began seeing Andy at FROGS PT 7 weeks ago, and now not only am I pain free, but now I’m running again too! My home program now begins and I will truly miss seeing Andy and his team. They are amazing! I give Andy tremendous gratitude and my highest recommendation! Bravo!
